At the tail end of the production for her third album, I speak with Mary Bragg about working with the producer Lee Alexander (Norah Jones, Amos Lee), the joys of Kickstarter and cooking for your fans, and Type A techniques for organizing the life of a singer-songwriter. Includes exclusive excerpts from the as-yet untitled album! Look for it come May 2011.

I catch up with Jamie (the) Drake on a visit to NYC. She tells me about setting up crazy ambitious challenges for herself (like playing a weekly gig for 7 months!), going unwittingly electric, the advantages of co-writing songs, and in a CAP podcast first she offers up a LIVE PERFORMANCE - of a new song at that! Giving KCRW a run for their money (Sophocles Becomes Eclectic?)
Andrew and I talk about haters and lovers, artists moving beyond the biggest hits, Michael Reisman, the score to Truman Show, and of course McDonalds.
I relentlessly attempt to force Louis Lopez to circumscribe his expansive musical identity only to be justifiably rebuffed. It’s akin to a very polite and effusive wrestling match. And why should he rein in an impressive collection of activities that span playing trumpet and electronics in projects like Grampus, scoring dance works by Szalt, and […]
The non-stop musical force that is Paula Matthusen and I discuss electro-acoustic music, growing up around radio tech and chamber ensembles, my penchant for yelling at strangers, spacialization, and her pieces Forgiveness Anthems and Lathyrus. Listen

We talk about how getting ear tubes emotionally damaged me, escaping South Texas with your soul intact, the pros and cons of growing up gay with and without the internet, the power of detachment as a form of expression, and his upcoming shows. Intro: What Will It Be For Me (from "Someone Will Take Care of Me") Outro: The Opposite of Love (from "Every Day Is The Same Day")
Featuring David Nelson: trombonist who's stomping grounds include Broadway and on Sufjan Stevens' lastest album. He's also an active composer and songwriter. We discuss serendipitous dwellings, West Side Story, A Soldier's Tale, Louis Andriessen as muse, and battling gearheaditis.
I'm joined by 5 of the 6 members of the composers collective, Sleeping Giant: Ted Hearne, Christopher Cerrone, Robert Honstein, Jacob Cooper, and Timothy Andres (we missed you, Andrew Norman). We tackle the new music scene (or scenes or lack of any such thing), composers/performers supporting each other in the wilderness outside of established institutions, along with the influence of Bang on a Can, Christian Metal, and full bladders. Join them on June 15th at Brooklyn's Littlefield for the...
Max and I sit down with the ever-amiable, earnest, and buoyant Steven Van Betten. We spend the better part of the hour transfixed as he chronicles his recent adventures in Ghana and his harrowing bout with malaria. Along the way, we get the skinny on the origins of Fell Runner and on how the music […]
I'm joined by the super insightful, generous, and dynamic presence that is Chris Kallmyer. Punk rock fostering community, the social architecture of classical music, creating "platforms for intimacy and exchange," the challenge and necessity of documentation, and concerts in a coat closet.
Renegade composer, keyboardist, producer, and all around good guy, Ben Vandermeer (aka Ben Mundane) talks with me about setting up a new studio, fun with foley, the brilliance of Talk Talk and Scott Walker, Gen- Xers as a transition generation, and mastering the squeaky floorboard. Featuring excerpts of his pieces: The Peaceluffness, Solo piano improv […]
In the throes of orchestrating his luminous opera "The Golden Gate" (about which the opera world is all abuzz), I join Conrad to talk "twinkling, shining, clanging" San Francisco nights; harpsichord kits; 1950's marriage manuals, and good advice from Phil Glass.
Andrew and I talk about the difficulty of incorporating "feelings" and other ethereals into academic research, the power of titles, LA's own crossover chamber group wildUp, and the joys of mixing notatation with improv with recordings to create an experience that would make even the most ornery reception analyst smile.
I'm joined by Clara Latham and her friend, Mike, who, among many other musical ventures, form part of the group Starring. We discuss the well-worn of path of musicians who move through "music schools" and into the broader indie pop world, creating music whether or not under the influence of money, an evening in the embrace of a Four Loko "triple threat," all while never once mentioning Radiohead.
It’s a listener request! In a slight deviation from our usual format, we convene a panel of three composers and one writer to discuss how people write about music: the words they use to describe the sounds, the instruments, and the process of composition/performance itself. Listener and author Geoffrey Wells reached out with this topic […]
Coming to you from a very spotty, super compressed (but listenable) Skype feed (apologies!), I speak with Jenny Johnson about the life of a newly minted tenure track professor (assistant professor of composition and theory at Wellesley College). We also discuss her chamber pop song "Dollar Beers," and her on-again-off-again gigs as drummer/percussionist for the band Magnetic Island and the power duo Winter Company (with Paula Matthusen).

On the heels of the release of the Evil Genius album “Bitter Human,” Max Kutner talks about how the trio came together and how it fits into a stunningly wide musical landscape that, for him, includes folk, rock, jazz, improvisation, and general ass-kickery. Intro: “For Healthy Living” – Of Healthy Living Other excerpts: “(Share in […]

Following the (pre-)release of her first physical album, “Night Travels,” Stephanie Smith reveals how these tracks came together, starting from Bach chorales arranged on a Dark Energy Synth and then dipping into her musical mainstays of violin and voice. We touch on the role of boredom in the creative process and what it’s like to […]
He’s done it all and with everybody who’s anybody. When talking to Bobby Previte, it’s hard not to use the phrase “giants in their field” when discussing his work (I used it twice). We talk about New York as “one big yes,” along with the upcoming premiere of his new piece “Terminals,” and his stage/multimedia pieces “The Separation” and “The 23 Constellations of Joan Miro.” Then there’s the love-hate relationship to subscription/cloud-based music services and we get...
Welcome to the inaugural podcast. I interview pianist and composer, Matthew Quayle. We discuss his current projects — including a woodwind trio and a set of cabaret-style songs — along with pieces from the recent and distant past. Topics include the primacy of the performer in his music and the role of incorporating a variety of historical, modern, classical, and vernacular styles.
Mohammed on stage, February House at the Public Theater, and love songs to buildings. Gabriel Kahane has the world in his hands as he flexes his talents in the areas of song, stage, and symphonic music (I might have forced the alliteration on that last one).
Speaking from his vaulted music lair in upper Manhattan, Caleb Burhans and I discuss the multiple multis that he inhabits, absolute music as a logical outgrowth of being a performer/improviser who composes, Ligeti as punk rocker, why Caleb hates both Brooklyn (he doesn't) and the label "alt-classical" (he does). BTW - the composer's name I was trying to remember at around 8 minutes in was Lutoslawski (duh).
Heralding a new chapter in CAP, I ambush Maxwell Gualtieri with a request to become my co-host (he ultimately says yes!). But not before he and I hash it out over issues like project diversity, influence saturation, and the potential (both good and bad) for over-extension.
I speak with Franz about putting the "show" back in show business, "intelligent hedonism," the importance of the extra-musical within a music persona, the freedom that comes from working as a producer, and the Anti-Social Music collective.
Communal music-making, stylistic extremes, the importance of song titles, and the relativity of musical time. On omni-present fixture of the LA chamber scene, Lauren joins me and Max for some, as she calls it, “mumbling outside of your brain,” or as most people call it – talking. Lauren and Max also bond over the delicate […]
Enthusiasm and open ears are a mainstay for composer, arranger, and trumpeter, Andrew Rowan. Max and I invade his work area and inadvertently reveal some secrets behind his process of writing an as-yet-unwritten string quartet (no pressure, AR!). Also discussed are collaborative projects including Large Ensemble and River Song Quintet (both with Lauren Baba – […]
